Wow, have you seen The Mortician, can you ever forget it? The true crime story of David Sconce and the Lamb Family Funeral Home and Crematorium in Pasadena is gripping, jaw dropping and all the more astonishing as Sconce himself tells the story of burning multiple bodies, harvesting organs, pulling gold teeth and even more!

Kevin Lane is no angel but he says he’s not a killer.

Growing up he was known as Lights Out Lane, settling scores, usually with violence. For much of his adult life, Kevin was in prison, first for kidnapping, which he accepts, then for a brutal murder, which he denies. He was convicted of being a callous hitman and sentenced to life but Kevin claims he was ‘fitted up’ and wrote 10,000 letters in protest, earning the label the UK’s Mr. Shawshank.

He’s out with a tag on his leg now and joins broadcaster Martin Frizell and emeritus Professor of Criminology David Wilson to share his views on current prison life and his colourful past. It’s across two episodes and gives a rare insight into life inside what Kevin calls the concrete coffin.

Government lawyers are at the High Court demanding a massive payback from a company linked to Michelle Mone - £122 million pounds of taxpayers cash for faulty PPE that’s never been used.

Separately, detectives from the National Crime Agency are investigating the Baroness and her tycoon husband Doug Barrowman for possible criminal charges - the couple deny any wrong doing. So in this episode broadcaster Martin Frizell and emeritus Professor of Criminology David Wilson examine the Mone case. For a change, this is alleged white collar crime, instead of the blue stuff!
